Sen. @booker.senate.gov blocked an attempt to strip Gray Wolves of their federal protections! Yesterday, Sen. Johnson tried to pass the Pet and Livestock Protection Act by unanimous consent. Booker objected, stopping the bill from advancing. It’s an important win but the fight continues!

CA Rep. James Gallagher is urging the Senate to pass H.R. 845, which would strip gray wolves of federal protections nationwide and block judicial review. His case relies on cherry-picked findings and a study of just two packs with known livestock conflicts. (1/2)

THE 2ND ANNUAL HOWL FEST IS COMING! We’re expanding to 9 cities to celebrate wolves & build the movement for recovery. Missoula starts early: Join Team Wolf + WildEarth Guardians at OddPitch Brewing this Wed, Aug. 5 to organize ahead of the MTFWP meeting. Spread the word!

The Endangered Species Act doesn’t just protect endangered animals. It protects the habitat they need to survive. H.R. 9901 would restore those habitat protections that are set to be eliminated next month. Urge your representative to cosponsor the bill at teamwolf.org !

Montana wants to kill 250 of its ~725 wolves—more than 1 in 3—even after @‌MontanaFWP revealed its old population model dramatically overestimated wolf numbers. That would leave just 475 before poaching, disease, landowner killings and wolves killed by government agents. (1/2)

Welcome home, Piney Ridge Pack! Colorado’s fifth recognized wolf pack—and fourth to welcome pups this year—arrives after a year of 10 wolf deaths, lethal removals and disrupted families. This new family is a hopeful milestone, but wolves still need protection: teamwolf.org

Idaho’s estimated wolf population has fallen 33% since 2020—from 1,688 to 1,129—largely through aggressive hunting and trapping. Officials admit it’s intentional. Their goal is just 500 wolves: a 70% reduction. This is slaughter, not management. Act now: teamwolf.org !

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) and Mike Quigley (D-IL) have introduced the bipartisan Safeguarding Endangered Species Act to reverse the Trump administration’s latest attack on wildlife protections. 🧵 (1/3)

🚨 BOMBSHELL: Montana FWP’s updated model estimates just 725 wolves statewide—369 fewer than its older estimate of 1,094. That’s a discrepancy equal to roughly one-third of the population previously reported. (1/3)

Yellowstone’s oldest wolf pack has left the park. For wolves, crossing an invisible boundary can mean losing the protections they’ve relied on for decades. Gray Wolves deserve responsible stewardship rooted in science—not policies that prioritize killing. TeamWolf.Org

🚨 BREAKING: Montana FWP admits it overestimated the state's gray wolf population for years. Its updated model estimates just 725 wolves remained at the end of 2025, yet the state still proposes allowing 250 wolves to be killed. Raise your voice at TeamWolf.org. 🐺

Team Wolf Chief Scientist Dr. Peter Kareiva is pushing back on an LA Times op-ed that blamed California’s Gray Wolf recovery on cattle predation. Just 2 of 12 packs caused nearly half of 2025 losses. The answer is targeted, nonlethal action—not fear-driven killing. Act now!

Wyoming’s wolf population has fallen to a 20-year low after disease devastated pup survival. Yet the state still keeps wolf populations at the bare minimum, still allowing 20 wolves to be hunted this year. The quota should be zero. teamwolf.org

🚨 Now is the time to act! Congress is back in session and Section 125 of the Interior bill would strip Gray Wolves of federal protections and block judicial review—all through an appropriations rider. Tell your Reps to oppose it BEFORE it becomes law: TeamWolf.Org

California has awarded $2M to help ranchers prevent conflict with Gray Wolves through reimbursements, outreach, early-warning technology, and other nonlethal tools. It’s an important step—and a chance for California to lead the country on nonlethal coexistence, not killing.

Gray Wolves don’t just need protection from bullets & traps. They need habitat. The Trump administration has weakened ESA protections by rolling back safeguards for habitat—the very places endangered wildlife depend on to survive. Read more: bit.ly/4vX2fqN

AI may soon be able to tell which wolves are nearby by listening to their howls. That could help ranchers act with nonlethal deterrents before conflict happens like moving livestock & bringing in range riders. Technology should prevent conflict, not make wolves easier targets.

Killing wolves can destabilise packs and increase conflict with livestock. Research has found nonlethal coexistence tools are more than 2.5X as effective at preventing depredation. There is no justification for recreational wolf hunts. Take action: teamwolf.org

Gray Wolves were listed under the ESA in 1974 after being hunted to the brink of extinction. Their recovery is one of USA’s greatest conservation stories—but it took decades, bipartisan support, and continued advocacy. Don't let it be in vain. Act now: TeamWolf.Org

The flag from another angle. Act now: teamwolf.org!

The NY Post ran a fear-driven piece on Gray Wolves, using loaded language and misleading imagery. Conflict is real, but sensationalism helps no one. CA has less than 100 wolves. Headlines like this could get them killed. Journalism should inform, not manipulate.

Europe’s wolves are making a historic comeback—an estimated 23,000 now roam EU member states. But like the U.S., recovery has sparked a backlash: weaker protections, more hunting, and fear-based calls to roll back progress. Read more: bit.ly/4eCGiHf

Dogs have often been mistaken for wolves and killed, a tragic result of the hatred wolves face in the U.S. From brutal hunts to extreme anti-wolf laws, attacks on wolves are relentless. 🐺 Remember: #AllDogsComeFromWolves. Help protect wolves now at TeamWolf.org !

81 bills. Just 25 anti-conservation members behind 65 of them. Their agenda? Sell off public lands, open waters to dirty energy, & gut bedrock wildlife laws. One bill, H.R. 1897 , would weaken the ESA & put Gray Wolves at risk. See the full dashboard: bit.ly/4g0xc8g

The conspiracy theory that oversized, invasive wolves were imported into Yellowstone has been debunked repeatedly. Northern Rockies wolves are the same species eradicated decades earlier. Size varies with habitat, prey, climate, & genetics. Read: bit.ly/4vxV882

Wyoming's Wolves May Be Bigger, But That Doesn't Mean They're 'Superwolves'

Newly published data shows just how big Wyoming wolves can get. The reasons are complicated, but include diet and coyote ancestry.

A Minnesota deer hunter captured what researchers say is the first-ever footage of a Gray Wolf diving underwater to hunt a beaver. Moments like this show exactly what recovery protects: intelligent animals keeping ecosystems balanced. Help protect wolves at teamwolf.org

A poison pill hidden in the Interior Approps Bill would force the federal government to strip Gray Wolves of protections—bypassing the science-based process required under the ESA. Wolves should not be turned into a funding bargaining chip. ACT NOW: teamwolf.org

Two federally protected Mexican Gray Wolves—a father and son from NM’s Sawtooth Pack—were trapped, tortured, killed, & dumped. The pack is now effectively defunct. Protections should prevent these deaths—not simply document it. Raise your voice: TeamWolf.Org

On Friday, CPW shot and killed a wolf who was tied to sheep depredations. This killing raises the question: is CO building a serious coexistence program or a program where the default response to conflict ends with dead wolves? 15 wolves connected to the program are now dead.

Congress is trying to delist Gray Wolves through a backdoor. A rider in the Interior funding bill would strip federal protections and block judicial review—based on politics and not science. Tell your Rep to oppose this poison pill: teamwolf.org
